Lyrics

To Believe In Something

So here we are
After all these years
Mesmerised by all that’s nothing
Or anything to do with what we started
Or with who we are
Was is what you always wanted?

To believe in something
To believe in something
To believe in something
To believe in something

To believe in something
Is what I crave
To remember how this all began
And who I was
Oh when you found me for the very first time
Then I think of all
Does it matter anymore?
I believe in you

To believe in something
To believe in something
To believe in something
To believe in something
I believe in you
I believe in you

After all these years
I believe in you
It’s the woman I was
That reminds me
To believe in Something

To believe in something
To believe in something
To believe in something
To believe in something

It’s the woman I was
That reminds me
Of all you have given
Of the strength and trust and ability
To Believe in myself
To Believe in myself
To Believe in myself
Cos, I believe in you
I believe in you

Lyrics

All My Love

Fields of green and open fires
Now cold machines and wires replace dead telephone lines

If I could kill (I could kill)
Kill the silence (I would kill)
I would fill it up with all my love

Ashamed I sent you flowers
As hours elastic ripen into heavy never-ending

Rushing slow to catch you
Through the sadly quiet corridors of early morning

If I could kill (I could kill)
Kill the silence (I would kill)
I would fill it up with all my love

Words are softly mouthed
There is no sound to let me know if I have been forgiven
Uselessly a rosary is said
For now I love the dead more than the living

If I could kill (I could kill)
Kill the silence (I would kill)
I would fill it up with all my love

If I could…
If I could…
If I could…I would…
I would… I would…

Oh, I would fill it up with all
I would fill it up with all my love

I would fill it up with all
I would fill it up with all my love

If I could…
If I could…

I would…

If I could…
If I could…I would…

Lyrics

God’s Pride

Waiting in silence
For your vengeance
Waiting in silence
For your judgement
Avoiding your eyes
Faking a smile
Avoiding your heart
And what kept me sane
What gives good conscience
Can be so far from the truth
Knowing in silence
That the choice I made was cruel
What we want
Is not always meant to be
Trying to find my path
My never-ending karma

Everything I tried to hide
From your eyes
Everything I tried so hard
For god’s eyes

Fearing in silence
That the choice I made was wrong
Waiting for answers
I might never get until I die

Welcome to the other side
It’s god’s pride
Those tears that made him smile
Will soon dry

Welcome to the other side
It’s god’s pride
Everything that made us cry
Will make us smile

Everything I tried to hide
From your eyes
Everything I tried so hard
For god’s eyes

Welcome to the other side
It’s god’s pride
Everything that made us cry
Will make us smile

Lyrics

Reach Out

I can hardly breath the thought of you in me,
Two hearts together,
Are you lonely like me?
And how can I pretend when every door is opening even wider,
All in innocence.
They say an empty river flows in each and every one of us.
Are you lonely like me?
And I can hardly breath the thought of you and me here forever.
Hold me in the night.

Only out here, on the outside
Only out here, on the outside

Reach out and touch me – only you know
I have been hurting – how to let go
Reach out and touch me – only you know
Patiently waiting for you – to reach out and touch me.

They say an empty river flows in each and every one of us.
A door will open; one will close until the rain comes.
You say it might be love and suddenly I’m afraid that it could matter.
Are you lonely like me?

Reach out and touch me – only you know
I am returning – how to let go
Reach out and touch me – only you know
My body’s calling for you – to reach out and touch me

Only out here, on the outside
Only out here, on the outside

Reach out and touch me – only you know
I have been hurting – how to let go
Reach out and touch me – only you know
Patiently waiting – for you to reach out and touch me.

To reach out and touch me
To reach out and touch me

Lyrics

Trashed Treasure

I would be there
At just gone three, precisely
To drive you home
I wonder if you can recall the time
We played in the snow
No work, no school, no problems
Just me and you
So I wonder why you chose to believe her
When she said my tears weren’t real
And I loved silver more than
My own flesh and blood
No wonder, don’t have the will to light…

A star in the heart of darkness
Build a bridge over ice-cold oceans
Tell you how I’m feeling
When her Royal Majesty won’t let me
So, you pilot her warplane
Cut love dead with an emailed stingray
And this is how I’m feeling
Like tomorrow’s trash is yesterday’s treasure

Trash, trash, trash treasure

This is how I’m feeling
Like tomorrow’s trash is yesterday’s treasure

Lyrics

Iron In The Soul

It’s bittersweet
When I remember
We used to think
Our life was better
We were happy and high
I know
There was no fear
Of being low
We were happy and high

Let the sun lead the way
And burn everything on its way
What sets us free anyway
If it’s all in our mind

Let the sun lead the way
And burn everything on its way
What sets us free anyway
If it’s all in our mind

It’s sad to see
The game is over
We played it well.
Do you remember

We were happy and high
I know
But isn’t it more to life
That we should know
We are one of a kind

Let the fun lead the way
Destroy everything on its way
What sets us free anyway
If it’s all in our mind

Let the sun lead the way
And burn everything on its way
What sets us free anyway
If it’s all in our mind

Lyrics

Fire For You

This life once held a place so safe and sound
My sanctuary – how beautiful
How so fearlessly you reached into the heart of me
No promises made – how dutiful

I have died in you
Crossed the line for you
With each new death with every breath I took for you
In the fire for you

I have cried for you
Been denied by you
I have often wished that your cruel kiss would take me to
The fire for you

How so helplessly, hypnotised by loves sweet dream
Torn into pieces
How so carelessly, we twist and turn the perfect dream
No promises made

I have died in you
Crossed the line for you
With each new death with every breath I took for you
What I wouldn’t do

I have cried for you
Been denied by you
I have often wished that your cruel kiss would take me to
The fire for you

You are everything
I can never be
All the things I want
but nothing that I need

It won’t ever stop though – don’t let it go

The source of the pain, day after day
Remember I told you to be careful
No promises made – It won’t ever stop
No promises made

In the fire for you

Cross the line for you

In the fire for you

I have run from you
to a fire for you
I have often been the lonely road that leads to you
What I wouldn’t do

The source of the pain, day after day
Remember I told you to be careful
No promises made – It won’t ever stop
No promises made

I have died in you
Crossed the line for you
With each new death with every breath I took for you
What I wouldn’t do

I have cried for you
Been denied by you
I have often wished that your cruel kiss would take me to
The fire for you

If you are everything
I can never be
All the things I want but nothing that I need
It won’t ever stop no, no promises made

I have died in you
Crossed the line for you
With each new death with every breath I took for you
What I wouldn’t do

I have cried for you
Been denied by you
I have often wished that your cruel kiss would take me to
The fire for you

Lyrics

The Beauty Of Science

Heaven’s just an endless sky alive with galaxies and universes
Pulsing with electrons ten to the power of almost eighty
Don’t confuse the Northern Lights with gods
They’ve come from the sun to the polar freezes
Swaying through magnetic fields,
They’ve come from the sun on a solar breeze

Do you love these wonders any less for knowing what they really are?
And do you love me any less for knowing who I really am?

Nothing takes my breath away more violently than the rapture of revelation
Nothing make my heart beat like the beauty of science…

The beauty of science…
The beauty of science…
the beauty of…

Lyrics

The Dark Half

While the world was sleeping
A red sun was rising
A black wind was moaning
The wheel never slowing

Wild horses running
The wilderness burning
Dust fills the air
There’s no way of returning

Silently its clinging
Unheard and unyielding
This world has a will of its own
Never slowing

The wheel is eternal
Its form elemental
No way of returning
The wheel never slowing

Hold your head high
Climb that hill
Fear the water
Rising still
And the truth will light the way you’ll see..

We’ll rain down such vengeance
We’ll call on the tempest
We raise up an army
We raise up an army

Let it turn
Let it turn
Let it burn
Let it burn

Oh, let it burn…

Lyrics

Sin

It’s all coming back to me
The way it used to be
All coming back to me
The way we used to be
Now, I’m looking back
No more guilt, I feel
It’s all coming back to me
Oh, I embrace our sin

Passion burns our skin
Could we tease and win
Passion burns our skin
We are meant to sin

Now, looking back
No more fear, I feel
It’s all coming back to me
I am ready to sin

Passion burns our skin
Could we tease and win
Passion burns our skin
We are meant to sin

There’s no one else to see
It’s just you and me
We can change our fate
We can live our dream
Without damaging…
If there is a hell
It’s the one we build
We are made of flesh
We are meant to sin
